  Chapter 12 ready to open

  After dinner, Han Songlin went to find Han Songcai and asked him to go to the county town with him to get a shop. Han Songcai readily agreed.

   For things like cement and river sand, Han Songcai knows where they are.

   It is also quite convenient to buy.

   As for the wood, there is a wood shop on the edge of the city, and I asked the owner for a few pieces of wood, and he agreed.

   Then I bought the necessary tools, such as foreign shovels, and masonry brick knives.

   Have to buy bricks!

  In other words, the years without telephones were really quite troublesome.

  Not far from the city, there is a brick factory, which will obviously be moved away in the future.

   Another batch of bricks was pulled from the brick factory.

   It took almost a week just to prepare the decoration materials.

  Then, let's start to adjust!

  First, the toilet was built, the ground was raised, and squatting toilets were installed.

  Why not install a toilet?

  Sorry, it's hard to find such a high-end thing in the county town in 1992; and Han Songlin is not used to using that thing, so I feel like I can't pull it out.

  The top of the toilet is the bed, so a prefabricated board with steel plates inside has to be built on the top.

  The prefabricated panels are made by myself, which is very simple, just pour cement into the molds that I made.

   After two days, it will take shape.

  As for the pillars on the second floor, four pillars are directly built with bricks, which are at the same height as the toilet.

   Then add wood, which is cypress wood. This kind of wood has many advantages. One is hard, and it is not easy to deform after drying.

   There is another very important special, that is, no worms.

  Anyway, in Han Songlin’s hometown, cypress trees are basically used as beams in the construction of houses, and they don’t need to be treated, and they won’t break after decades of use.

   After 20 to 30 years of storage, after dusting, it is still yellowish white.

   For the convenience of going upstairs, a ladder was built with bricks.

   After that, a partition wall was built along the edge of the ladder!

  The walls are naturally plastered, so it goes without saying.

  In fact, the entire wall was re-plastered.

  The previous wall was not smooth.

   It doesn't look good.

   After that, it’s time to start doing the outside.

   As for the stewed meat stall, Han Songlin is not going to say that it is placed outside the door.

   Instead, put it inside the door.

   First, build a 7-shaped right-angled platform.

  First give the whole prefabricated board.

  How to do it, Han Songlin knew it well, and drew a strict construction sketch.

  For prefabricated panels, in order to ensure the quality, steel bars are added inside.

  Han Songlin, I don’t want to say that this stall will be closed down one day.

  The top of the booth must be kept clean and beautiful, so it must be covered with tiles, and white tiles must be used.

  The largest tiles available on the market are laid.

  Where is the partition wall? In the future, there will be an area for braised meat and an area for cleaning meat. Therefore, a large pool must be built.

  The pool, of course, has to be tiled.

  As for how to drain the water, Han Songlin specially made a relatively large plastic pipe and drained it directly into the sewer.

  Because I was worried that the smell of the sewer would be washed up, a U-shaped pipe was installed under the pool.

  Of course, this must not be able to discharge large particles, and it is easy to block the pipe, so Han Songlin also made a filter at the opening.

  The decoration of the entire store has been busy, and it is already June.

  The weather, of course, began to get hotter and hotter.

   With the dust-proof shelf above the booth installed, this is finally all done.

   This shelf is made of wood, specially made by Han Songlin.

   There is also transparent glass installed on it.

  Of course, small windows are also opened, so it cannot be said that customers are not allowed to buy things, right?

   Overall, Han Songlin felt quite satisfied anyway.

  It has the taste of a braised meat shop in later generations.

  The window mirror is bright, giving people a very hygienic feeling.

   When selling food, you must give people the impression that the things you sell are hygienic.

   Otherwise, you will lose quite a few customers.

  Now that it has been decorated, it is natural to say that it is officially open for business.

   "Brother Han, your shop is well decorated!"

   Zhang Qifa looked at Han Songlin's store, and really didn't know what to say.

  Compared with his store, I feel that other stores on this street are a bit low.

  Han Songlin: "Brother Zhang laughed!"

   "When will you open?"

  Han Songlin: "In two days, after the signboard is made, we can open for business!"

  The signature is Han’s Lo-Mei!

  The font is made of wood, and then it is painted with red and yellow paint.

  Han Songlin also found the light-emitting diodes and put them on them.

   At night, the effect should be ok.

  After the store is decorated, it should be ready for opening, right?

  Han Songlin is also actively preparing.

  The first thing to do is let Liu Yuyan enter the city together.

   It is enough for people to go to the city, and buy new quilts, sheets and so on.

  Liu Yuyan blamed Han Songlin for wasting money, but Han Songlin also had legitimate reasons.

   This is about to start a new life, so naturally we have to say goodbye to the past.

  From now on, you will be a city dweller!

  Actually, Han Songlin doesn’t care whether he lives in the city or in the countryside; don’t look at the present, urban hukou is very popular. But in the future, rural household registration will be the most popular. If you want to change to a rural household registration, in some places, it will not work at all.

  If you want to transfer your household registration to the countryside, you must get the consent of all members of the commune.

   Not only verbally, but also signed by every household.

  The most important thing now is that Han Songlin wants to leave the previous environment, bid farewell to the past and start a new life.

  That's why Han Songlin didn't want Liu Yuyan to bring things from home to the city.

  No more.

  Although Liu Yuyan didn't understand why Han Songlin was like this, Han Songlin's reasons convinced her.

   Indeed, going to the city is to start a new life.

  Moving to live in the city, of course, you can't say that you can just come, and it takes a lot of time to purchase various things.

  There is also the preparation work for opening the store.

  Before, Han Songlin went to the slaughterhouse in County H to make contact.

  Get meat from them.

  It is mainly pig head meat, pig ears, pig tails, pig feet, fat intestines and so on.

   There are a lot of uncleaned hairs on these. Han Songlin directly uses rosin to remove the hairs.

  In later generations, rosin hair removal was not allowed, so we often bought quite a lot of braised pork with a lot of hair on it.

  Now, no one cares about this issue.

  Han Songlin didn't want to do this either, but he had no choice but to use hair clips to pull them out one by one, which would be too time-consuming.

   As for the fact that you don’t clean the fur, you won’t be able to sell it.

  Opened on the first day, very low-key.

  Two large briquette stoves, that is, one is used.

  In addition to the two large briquette stoves, there are also two small stoves.

  To be honest, it is estimated that there will be a dozen or twenty briquettes per day.

  Hope, there will be that time.

  Even though Han Songlin is confident in the taste of his stewed pork, after all, this taste has been improved many times.

   Compared with the current lo-mei, the taste is indeed much better.

  If the taste is not good, people can't say that in the past, earning such a big net worth, right?
